Summary

Set broke down after just over a year. Black squares appeared over half of the screen. The supplier and Sony thought some of the boards would need replacing and it could cost anything up to £900. I decided not to bother and will be scrapping the set. Considering how much I paid for it, this is poor value for money.

How long have you used the product?

More than 3 months

What are the strengths?
Huge screen, reasonable picture quality
What are the weaknesses?
Not very reliable
